Help me find some inspiration.

Lovely friends, please help me get back my blogging mojo.

You may not believe it, but oh, how I miss it, so.

I used to have so much to say,

But now, I can't even blog every seventh day.

No dating nightmares, stop light adventures, or crazy tomfoolery;

Just babysitting, running errands, and a little bit of schoolery.

So, now, dear readers, I beg of you, this,

To help get my blog out of the piss...(er),

Ask me questions, suggest topics to write about,

I'll do your requests until they run out.




And if that poem wasn't spelling it out enough, I'm currently taking suggestions for things you'd like me to write about. Ask a question, suggest a topic, seek my opinion... I DO NOT CARE. I just need to get out of this writer's block I've had since August!

This is hilarious. Dr. Seuss has nothing on you. Hmmm...what to ask...well, you know my favorite posts are match.com stories...but what about if you won the lotto... post? {written in rhyming lyrics of course...} or your favorite books & movies...hmmm...I'm not that creative, see? Whatever your next post is...I hope it rhymes!!! :o)

Girl. Where are your naked old ladies at the gym stories? I think you need to chronicle it with photos. Seriously.

(hang in there, everyone loses their mojo every now and then)

I'm probably the wrong person to ask for inspiration. I struggle to write 2 posts a week. How do these people do 5 or more posts? How do they do it & not get burnt out?

Are there any new favorite products to review? Movies? Books?

OK, now...you didn't give me a chance to respond to your post asking for inspiration before you called me and all 108 other readers lame! ;-)

I read this post earlier, and I actually thought about suggesting coming and linking up with the Friday Confessional. I only started doing it a couple of weeks ago, but it has turned into one of my favorite posts each week to write. The lady who hosts it, Mamarazzi, does a ton of other link-ups, but I've only just done the confessional meme. Once you link up, people from all over drop by and leave comments, and it's really fun and interactive. Maybe just doing that will inspire you to find other things to write about, or just keep you doing at least one post a week.

Here's my $.02 worth, how about instead of looking at the whole picture when blogging just focus on the small simple things that come your way. For instance I could go on and on for hours about my hubby, kids, school etc all in one post, but that could be too much. How about posting about the silly small things that happen to you throughout your day, for example you went to the grocery store and the person in front of you chose to pay in pennies. Urggg that annoys you so much and this is why. How about when something really awesome happens to you, blog about that like you did about getting the call to come interview for nursing school. You'll get your mojo back in no time.

I'm barely pumping out 2 blog posts a week myself so I'm probably not the best person to ask for inspiration!

So, let's see....for a serious post, how about writing about a once-in-a-lifetime experience you've had. Lame, I know...but I'm trying.

For something funny, how about making a list of all the things you will NEVER say once you're a parent!

How about giving us a peek into different parts of your life? What about your bedroom....describe it, take a picture...then your car...your town...your best friend...you know - just stuff about your life...your countertop (ha ha...that WAS a joke btw...) It's fun just getting to know bloggy buddies, don't you think?

It seems like when I have the most going on in my life, I post the least. Grrr.
Take the 30 day challenge, love. Some of the topis care lame but you can always skip those. :)

Just Popping In

I didn't intend to skip out for the past (almost) week, &, as a matter of fact, I actually HAD things to blog about (shocking, I know), but the end of last week was pure chaos and time did not allow for much of anything other than work/appointments/errands/getting ahead on school work/playing mom to three kids all weekend. And all of that running around & time spent with kids has left me with a terrible cold, intense nausea, and sleep deprevation. However, my flight leaves at 7:05 tomorrow morning & by 2 EST, I'll be in beautiful St Thomas with another friend visiting one of my favorite people in the world & for that, I am beyond grateful. Catch y'all in a week or so! Aloha. Or whatever the Caribbean equivalent of goodbye is.

Random Facts about Me You Probably Don't Care to Know.

Brown Eyed Girl Jenn did this post earlier today and I thought it was fun, I haven't done a meme in ages, and I have a handful of new followers who may like to know useless information about me, so I figured what the heck? Might as well steal it. Thanks, Jenn! The ABCs of yours truly! A. Age -- 23. I'll be 24 on May 20th (I love surprises in the mail, hint hint ;)) and some days I can't believe I'm that old, while others, I can't believe I'm that young. B. Bed size -- Queen and it's the most heavenly thing in the world, which is great, but also bad, because it is nearly impossible to pull myself out of bed every morning... or afternoon. C. Chore you dislike -- Cleaning the shower would probably be my least favorite. I have a shower/tub combo and I really just hate getting on my hands and knees and scrubbing the bejeezus out of the thing. Plus, I feel like I smell like Clorox for the next 3 showers. D. Dogs -- I have two fur babies, you can read about them

The Season of Giving... & Receiving

Read this post. Trust me, you'll want to. Christmas is my absolute favorite time of year. From Thanksgiving until January 1st, I forget about how much I despise cold weather and bask in the warmth that is Christmas cheer. Oh, Lord, is that cheesy or what? But I mean it. There's just something about all the decorations, the music, the preparation for the birth of my Lord, that makes me all giddy. But it can also be a stressful time with the end of school, shopping to do, letters to send, volunteer work, etc. I know I'm not the only person in the world who stresses. Kids, taking care of the home, jobs, finding a job, loved ones who are fighting for our freedom overseas, school, being a good friend and family member-- it can all be so overwhelming and take a toll on the body. I try to use homeopathic remedies (I think that's the term I'm looking for...) when I'm feeling incredibly stressed because Lord knows my body gets pumped full of enough pharmaceuticals as is
